Strategy 1: Turning Passive Observers into Active Participants

At in-person events, we would normally have serendipitous moments of connection, but online we have to create moments of connection on purpose or else they will not happen at all!

So how do we beat Zoom fatigue and make convening online interesting, impactful and even enjoyable? Make engagement your #1 priority!

One of the best ways to get participants engaged is to introduce an activity, or opportunity to ‘play’. When you draw people into play, not only will they enjoy the experience, but they will be further engrossed in the event. 

Play allows people to open up and connect, and even aids the brain in retaining information quickly and more efficiently.

Leverage the Power of Play
Why Play?

More than an activity, play is a mindset that encourages curiosity and adaptability.

A culture of play creates a safe environment for creativity and innovation to flourish.

When play is practiced with intention, it can be a profound vehicle for accelerating growth, learning and development.

Research shows that experiential play:

Induces a “flow” state, ideal for creativity and the learning of new skills

Lights up the whole brain and creates new neural path ways that literally make you smarter

Strengthens collaboration, builds creative problem-solving skills, and helps your team to overcome challenges quickly and easily.

Play is a core value of our company. Which is why we’ve created a library just for you, to be able to access over 80+ games and exercises to help you get your peers engaged in play today.
